Filling out a KEEPER label
- If there are any SDRAM slots, count and circle the correct number
- Do the same for RAMBUS and DDR slots
- (Some systems have both DDR and SDRAM slots.)
- For AMD chips:
- Circle AMD in the "Proc Type" section
- Write the processor model number in the "Processor Information" area
- For Intel and other chips:
- Circle the processor type (or write next to "Other")
- Write the processor speed in the "Processor Information" area
- If the system can take more than one processor, check the Multi Proc Capable box
- If the system has a dual core processor, check the Dual Core box
- If the system did not POST successfully, check the Did not POST box
- If there are any PCIe slots, circle PCI-e
- If there are any PCI slots, circle PCI
- If there is an AGP slot, circle AGP
- If there is an IDE connector on the motherboard circle IDE
- If there is a SATA connector on the motherboard circle SATA
- Remember to put your initials in the appropriate box

- Silicon Graphics (SGI)
- Indy (they're blue)
- anything with the label RISC on it
- High Speed or Ultra Speed CD RW
- They must have a standard 5.25" rectangular faceplate and not be laptop-sized.
- A drive is only High Speed or Ultra Speed if it literally says "High Speed" or "Ultra Speed" to the right of the "Compact Disc" label.
- DVD Drive
- They must have a standard 5.25" rectangular faceplate and not be laptop-sized.
- Front side card readers, only if it includes a cable
- Gigabit ethernet card (Network Card marked 1000)
- Wireless card
- Power supply with a SATA connector
- Molex to SATA power supply adapter
- Molex to 6-pin power supply adapter
- Motherboard with SATA connector(s)
- A really cool case that some geeky kid would drool over
